I'm using the K2TOG s because of all of your wonderful comments. When I reach the leg portion I'll remember the slouch factor, too. I do have very shapely calves, though. Of course, I got the new kit today and immediately cast on for these socks too. So far there are no surprises. Love your socks.Margiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17976296107280824177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18506844.post-56412526600778216272007-05-24T15:48:00.000-04:002007-05-24T15:48:00.000-04:00Thanks for commenting on my blog. Your Grasshopper...Thanks for commenting on my blog. Your Grasshoppers look great (so far I've only made one of my Monsoon socks - that's it). Have fun with the Embossed Leaves. Good for you for joining in the round immediately. As far as I can tell on the socks I made, those notches were only put there to annoy me. That and the cutting of the yarn were two big mysteries.christine (threedogknits)https://www.blogger.com/profile/16701892389337086832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18506844.post-33197248342820525742007-05-23T17:35:00.000-04:002007-05-23T17:35:00.000-04:00Love the socks!

I haven't even finished my monsoons yet, but in the meantime I have managed to make it through at least 3 skeins of STR on other projects.Stash Monkeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06278974478020262412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18506844.post-91470644199887352452007-05-23T08:04:00.000-04:002007-05-23T08:04:00.000-04:00Even without increases and the regular bind off - ...Even without increases and the regular bind off - the grasshoppers are super slouchy!! I wish I had thought of the twisted rib for the cuff - it might have had more "hold up" power! Yours look great! and <BR/>Your Embossed Leaves sock is beautiful!pathttp://patsknittingandquilting.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18506844.post-55252932974870590502007-05-22T21:02:00.000-04:002007-05-22T21:02:00.000-04:00The notch at the top annoyed me so much that I rip...The notch at the top annoyed me so much that I ripped it out and did a normal cuff, I just couldn't figure out why it was there. I also couldn't figure out what the deal was with cutting the yarn, so I ignored that part, too. I am such a rebel. ;)Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16846943673211958259noreply@blogger.com
